Class Action Settlements for Illinois Residents

Most class action settlements are open nationwide, so Illinois residents can claim them along with everyone else. A smaller number are limited to people in Illinois. Here are both.

If you live in Illinois, you can claim most US class action settlements: the large majority are open to anyone in the country who meets the eligibility rules. Some are limited to people who live, work or bought something in Illinois, usually because the case was brought under Illinois law. This page lists both, refreshed daily from the SettleScout catalogue.

Most Illinois-only settlements come from the Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA). Since 2008 it has required companies to get written consent before collecting fingerprints, face scans or other biometric data from people in Illinois. People whose data was taken without consent can recover statutory damages of $1,000, or $5,000 if the violation was intentional or reckless.

Employee time clocks that scan fingerprints and apps that scan faces are the most common BIPA cases. If you lived or worked in Illinois and used one, check the list below.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can Illinois residents claim nationwide class action settlements?

Yes. Unless a settlement says it is limited to certain states, anyone in the US who meets its eligibility rules can file, including Illinois residents.

Why are some settlements only open to Illinois residents?

Some cases are brought under a state's own consumer, privacy or employment laws, so only people covered by that law are in the class. Those settlements list Illinois residency, or activity in Illinois, as a requirement.

Do I need a lawyer to file a settlement claim?

No. Class members file directly with the court-appointed settlement administrator, usually online, for free. Class counsel already represents the class.
